Installing Airbags


Getting some stuff together at the Toy Box today in anticipation of my Labor Day camping weekend. Making a big mess is more like it:



I also got the air bags installed on my Suburban.




I thought this would be a real easy project, and it was straight forward, but it was really fiddly to do. Getting the air hoses on the barbs and getting those bags in the springs was pretty tough. I'm all cut up!

Seems like it's gonna work good though. Aired up, I can't feel much difference in the ride, but it doesn't let the back end sag like before. I hooked up my Sport and it only dropped 1 inch! The true test will be on my other trailer with the WD hitch setup.

So tomorrow, I have a few odds and end to install on my trailers, namely some LED awning lights and to clean up the rest of this mess!
